6.2. Optimise altitudes

The Optimise Altitudes page displays the time interval and fuel used for each 1000ft increment for each stage in the flight plan, up to the service ceiling entered in the currently selected aircraft model.

Tap a row to select and apply the altitude to a particular flight plan stage.

Scroll down to view the list for subsequent stages of a multi-stage flight plan.

*Note: The correct hemispherical altitude for the route to be flown is highlighted in green. If the highlighted altitudes are not correct for the flight rules you will be flying under, ensure you have the correct flight rules selected for the flight plan.

Also note that AvPlan will only optimise up to the highest sensible altitude; for short flights where Top of Climb coincides with Top of Descent, the optimiser will not show a result above that altitude.
